ATLANTA, GA, November 23.-An election
In this city on the question of adopting for

whom over 11,0O0 votes will be cast. The
campaign as it stood last night is singular
and deplorabIe. There is total suspension
of business, and merchants, as well rs en-
ployes, stand In groups on the street cor
ners, wildly gesticulating over the merits OF
the question. Nearly every business hrm
In the city is about equally divided. The
women are thoroughly stirred up and walk
the streets with blue badges on their breasts.
In fact the women were last night the
ciared their purpose Of having lunct
stands at different polls where white ladies
will wait upon negro men who will vote the
prohibition ticket. The old people shake
their heads at this innovation but promi-
nent colored man says of it: II see IN 1t
the greatest danger. White ladies are ID
viting this familiarity and yet if one of our
young men emboldened by this invitation
should speak to one of them the next day,
he would stand mighty good chance OF get
ting lynched."
Monday night young gentleman escort
ing two young ladies from the theatre hap
pened to remark that he was "wet." At
once they dropped his arm, dismissed him
and went home by themselves. This social
ostracism is SO pronounced that its effects
will be felt for long time after prohibition
sh II have become dead issue. Both parties
have parades every night this week. On Fri
day night each party has announced monster
meetings which will probably last all night
so that voters may attack the polls early.

DROPHOBIA'S VICTIM.
A Railroad Man Dies in Very Few Hour,
in Awful Agony.


in Awful Agony.
SEDAL1A, Mo-, November 24.-Samue1 j.
Foster, railroad man, went to the Missouri
Pacific hospital in this city at II O'Clock
yesterday morning and complained of pains
in the stomach. The physician prescribed
for him, and after a great effort he swal.
lowed the medicine. At 2 o'clock he showed
symptoms of hydrophobia and was tied
hand and foot and then bound firmly to
the iron bedstead on which he was placed
Shortly afterwards he was attacked
with violent spasms and his struggles
we're terrible. He frothed at the
month and several times came very near
choking to death. Drs. Yancery and Adams
at once began to give him wooara by hypo-
dermic injection This is South American
remedy, Obtained on the upper Amazon and
upper Oronoco and also in British Guiana
and used by the South American Indians to
poison their arrows in battle and also in
killing game. It is known as an antispas-
modic of greater power. perhaps, than any
other drug in the materia medica. This
remedy had been ordered for James
P. Cody, who died in the hospital
from hydrophobia during the sum-
mer, but which came too late.
The doctors used it on Foster with vigor,
giving one-thirteenth of grain every half
an hour or SO, but seemingly without effect.
A large number of the leading physicians of
the city were present and after a thorough
trial of the woorara it was advised by all that
dose of morphine be administered hypo-
dermically. This was done and after twenty
or thirty minutes Foster began to show the
effects by becoming quieter. Although he
did not sleep, yet his spasms were less FREE
quent and not so hard, and at 1925 p. m. he
died.
The dead man came to this city one year
ago from Neenah, Wis. He was freight con-
ductor for ten or twelve years on Il Q North
ern Pacific, but has been following the call
ing of a fireman since he came to Missouri
HISS remains will be sent to Neenah for
burial. He was about 80 years of age. and
was we'll liked by his associates. He denied
having been bitten by dog or any other
animal, but the physicians all agree that
rabies caused his death.

PEsTH, November 26.-The Pesther Lloyd
says that the interview between Prince Bis
march and the car was a dramatic one.
Prince Bismarck was scarcely able to re-
strain his passion: The car assured the
German chancellor that he desired peace,
and did not intend to attack Germany or to
take part In any coalition against her.
Prince Bismarck declared that whosoever
wished peace must not attack Germany
allies. He presented the subject clearly to
the car, who admitted the princes views
were not new to him, and added his decla-
rations regarding Germany applied equally

Deeply Moved.

BERLIN, November 23.-Count Rodolinski,
the chamberlain of the crown prince, writes
that the manifold proofs of sympathy which
the crown prince has received from all parts
of Germany and from abroad, together with
the numerous kindly meant recommends
tions to cure his malady, have deeply moved
and rejoiced his imperial highness. It is
impossible, the chamberlain says, to reply
separately to the many letters and kilograms
received and the prince therefore desires to
give general expression of his thanks for
the sympathy extended to him.

The "Arbeiter Zeltungn On Kroedom -
Speeoh-Covert Threats Aeainss Intee-
ference With the Reds Celebration.
CHICAGO, November 28.-The folloWino
extracts from an article in the Sunday issue
of the Arbeiter Zeitung arc interesting -
the present juncturs, as there has ben
some question of . celebration, such a. tie
central labor union and q number Of turn-
ing and singing societies intend to have
December 10, would lead to trouble.
Referring 10 the attempts to prevent any
speaking at such meeting, the paper says:
1.-THE committee that has rented battery
d hall for the celebration December
10 is compelled to fight this insidious mob
which, in the full consciousness of its guilt
dare not approach its honest opponents
openly, but tries to obstruct their way by
trickery. It is said that such things can
happen, but it is said that Friday evening
the delegates of the nine turning societies
declared as one man: sit is our duty a.
Turner'S to protect freedom Of speech. a.
thirty years ago our brothers of the Cincin-
matt Turnge Munde considered 1T their So
cred duty to protect Wendell Phillips with
their bodies against mob thathad majority
but was governed by stupidity and villainy.
AZ they were ready to give up blood and
speech guaranteed by it, thus we will also
stand fast and true when John Clay steps ON
the platform and speaks to the working peo-
pie of the past, present and future. Those
were true Turner'S that spoke in that strain
and we entertain the firm hope that those
Turner's also who were in minority in the
80 called conservative societies will b
sound on this question; that they
viii also know where their place is, If any
body, whoever it may be, should make q
frivolous, reasonable attempt-an attempt
deserving of death-to outrage the rights Of
the people; but it will not come to this"
The article goes on to say that the citi-
zens' association will not let it come to this
for lack of courage, and the organization
would not, SO soon after the 18th day of No
vember, provoke riot, the termination of
which would be at least doubtful.

the storm was simply terrible. This morn
